    Default Race and language should not be issues

    I've been on both sides of the language barrier. I've run PUGs with 5 English speakers and one Chinese, and I've been the only English speaker in a Chinese group. Always nothing but respect and support, which I find very typical in most PUGs on Sarlona. If you want to call someone out for being a poor player, that is your call and you deal with the consequences. Attacking someone's ethnicity or language is cowardly and juvenile; there is no place for it in this or any other game. Check that - there is no place for it anywhere.

    Based on my recent high level pugging experiences, I have a reasonable idea on what guild this player is from and a pretty good beat on the player name. Would someone be so kind as to drop me a PM with the name so I can confirm my suspicions?

    Finally, to the OP - I've never been in a game situation where I was attacked racially, so I have no idea how you must feel. I can tell you the standard things - let it go, not everyone is like this, you are always welcome in my groups - but not of that changes how you feel. I sincerely hope that you are able to continue to enjoy this game and that this incident has not ruined this game for you. Hope to see you around, and good luck moving forward.

    Default It takes two to tango!

    It takes two people to create hurt feeling.

    One person to say or do somethings offensive.
    And
    One person to be offended.

    To say one is right and the other is wrong is bull. Both are in the wrong!

    As long as there will be someone to be offended there will be jerks that will do whatever they can to be offensive. It is a closed minded way of living and a shame, but it might not ever change. The world would be a better place if it would.

    Words are not stones. They only hurt when you let them. I know it is not easy, but anyone can make themselves immune to jack-holes by letting words bounce off of them.

    I just hope the person that was being offensive, doesn't use this thread as fuel for his/her closed off ideals.

    Nothing more.
    I asked that because as far as I know. there is no typical Chinese word spelled like that.
    I don't understand those words.
    And I believe those words aren't English either?

    They are not real English, just made up words to mimic what Chinese sounds like to English ears.

    Not cool! It makes me a little sad.

    Please note that if you experience harassment in-game, report that player for harassment. Racism will not be tolerated.
